Assertion: Frictional forces are conservative forces.
Reason: Potential energy can be associated with frictional forces.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Friction force is not a conservative force; potential energy cannot be associated with friction force. Potential energy depends on initial and final position of the body. So both assertion and reason are false.
